rsocnAk5i,S, AND THEIR
<TOHS,

Our esteemed contemporary, The
Daily city Item, after closing its
campaign against the cllal ges at
the receipt, and shipping Of |
Cotton in New Orleans, including
pressing, weighing, fac
forage, storage OH shipboard, has
turned attention to the charges
attending the dealing of Sugar
planters with Commission Mer
chants.
Though admittedly unsuccessful
in the former instance, it is to be
hoped better result will accom-
pany the ITEMS present effort.
Sometime since, our contemporary
exposed the unjust action of the
wharfinger, III removing Sugar and
m0lasses, from the Levee to the
Sugar sheds, without allowing a
reasonable time, or 81, ing notice, to
the consignee.
The conduct of that official was
so unauthorized and unjust, that
the wrong WAS soon corrected.
The present subject ofcontention
is the charges made by the Com
mission Merchants for advances for
the current expenses in cultivating
and rolling, purchasing supplies,
and selling the crop. A well known
planter Of Terrebonne complains
that those charges are excessive
and beyond the means of the
planter. These charges include
says Mr.. Shaffer, eight per cent.
annual interest, to which is to be
/, added two and IL half per cent. foi
the merchants acceptance; two AND
0 IL half per cent. on all purchases
made for the planter, and two aud
: half per cent. for selling the crop
The Item, with its honest iuteni
to correct evils, but not to exag
gerate them, admits, that sucl
charges would be excessive, bu
says, that, on inquiring, infor matiol
is derived that such charges ar,
not the general, or, at least, not til,
universal rule, Instances are men
, TONED where the planter is no
subject to so high charges, aux
Commission Merchants donot max,
5 them. The exceptions, as to plaut
ers, mentioned by the Item, are
: however, those not in need q
, borrowed money, and, in some i'll
stances, residents Of New Orleans
and, therefore, enabled to max,
theil~own purchases; therefore, they
/, are, as to financial condition and
, resi- 'enee, exceptional to the posi-
ton of most planters. The lea
question is, what to the Sugar
planter, residing on his plantation
and III need of advances for carry
ing on his plantation, are the aSaa
charges made by most of the Com
mission Merchants of New OrIeansl
The HERALD trusts that The
efforts OF M, Shaffer and the Item
will determine the real facts in con
troyefsy between them, and secure
such amelioration in the unjust
charges as may be found to exist
astotena to friendly accord between
and mutual benefit to, the Sugar
section of the Stale and Nov
Orleans.

FREEDMAN's VILLAGE MUST Go.-The
Secretary of War has issued an order re.
curing all the inhabitants of Freedman's 8
Village, located on the Fort Meyer military
reservation. in this county as we'll as any
one else who is living within the reservation
limits to remove within thirty days. The
Immediate cause of the order was the COM
plaint Of the superintendent of Arlington
Cemetery tnet some OF the colored inhabit.
ants Of the village were in the habit or cut.
ting down trees in the cemetery, and the
depredatioDs had continued for some time.
Il was impossible 10 guard the entire ceme-
terry, and difficult to detect the thieves
who sawed the trees to avoid noise.
The Secretary of War decided to rid the
reservation of oil ou usders, who have lived
on it by sufferance. The reservation is
about Il miles square, and the Arlington
Cemetery is in the middle of it. Freed
mans Village is at the southern end, and
there are number of scattered shanties on
the eastern side between the main road and
the river. The inhabitants have no little or
claim of any kind TO the land, but own the
houses, which they will be permitted to re.
move. Freedman's Village was an out
growth OF the war, aud was established Oh
tue old Lee estate When the Government
acquired tho estate by purchase, the colored
settlers we're allowed to remain, performing
work such es it was on the reservation &C
casionaly ss rent for the land. Its thought
likely that the Secretary may extend the
time for their removal, as otherwise they
might be turned out houseless before the
end of the cold weather.
